Transcript: How do I become an electrical engineer? Video Monique Elise Hayford February 2016 Physics: Block 2 Electrical engineers design, establish, test, and oversee the creation of electrical equipment, such as electric motors, radar and navigation systems, communications systems, or power generation equipment. What is relates to? Average Income Internships? Electrical Engineering deals with the study and application of electricity, electronics, and electromagnetism. The median income for an electrical engineer is, as of 2014, $91,410, in comparison to the median income of $51,939 at the time (according to the US Census 2014) Electrical Engineering Monique Elise Hayford Electrical Engineering Presentation Without electrical engineering, there would be not television, air conditioning, communication, motors, or refrigerators (just to name a FEW). Electrical engineering is extremely important in society. In electrical engineering, there are a plethora of internship opportunities. While internships are not mandatory to acquire a job in electrical engineering, job experience would increase your chances. What is it? In high school, it is recommended that you take physics and math classes. To be an electrical engineer, you must have a bachelor's degree and it is recommended that you have some field experience. Incidentally, it is asked that you have your PE (professional engineering) license. There are many universities that offer a five year program for engineering students to earn both their Bachelor's and Master's degree. Quick Facts Madison, N., and Niki Foster. WiseGeek.
